Handlebar Assembly and Bicycle

This application claims priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 202420253562.6, filed on Jan. 31, 2024, entitled “HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY AND BICYCLE”, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

The present application relates to the field of bicycle technologies, and in particular, to a handlebar assembly and a bicycle.

As a tool for riding instead of walking, a bicycle plays an important role in the daily life of people. A handlebar is an essential component for controlling an advance direction of the bicycle. A front fork of a traditional bicycle is provided with a wheel, the front fork is fixed to a stem, and the handlebar is fixed to the stem to control a swing direction of the wheel of the front fork.

However, when the traditional bicycle is parked, since a left-right size of the handlebar is large, that is, a size of the handlebar in a width direction of the bicycle is large, the handlebar occupies a large space, and if a large number of bicycles are parked in a designated parking region, the handlebar is prone to interfere with and be scratched by other adjacent vehicles due to two protruding ends thereof, thereby limiting an upper limit of the number of the bicycles that can be parked in the designated parking region, making parking and taking of the vehicles difficult, and lowering bicycle use experiences of a user.

The above information disclosed in the background of the present application is only used for understanding a background of the inventive concept and may contain information that does not constitute the prior art.

Based on this, it is necessary to provide a handlebar assembly and a bicycle to solve the above problem.

A handlebar assembly includes:

The above handlebar assembly at least achieves the following beneficial effects: the stem may be fixed to a front fork of a bicycle for controlling a travel direction of a wheel on the front fork. When the bicycle with the handlebar assembly is ridden, at the unlocking position, the handlebar is rotatable relative to the stem, and in this case, the whole handlebar can be rotated into a state of being substantially perpendicular to the wheel of the front fork, i.e., the state that the handlebar is substantially perpendicular to a frame, the limiting structure is then moved to the locking position to relatively fix the handlebar and the stem, and in this case, the handlebar can drive the stem to rotate together. It can be understood that this conforms to bicycle using habits of a user during riding, the user faces the handlebar, and two hands can naturally rest on the handlebar in front of the body. If the bicycle with the handlebar assembly is parked in a designated parking region, a number of bicycles in the designated region is large, and distances between the bicycles are small, the bicycle with the handlebar assembly according to the present application has advantages, the limiting member can be moved to the unlocking position, the handlebar can be rotated relative to the stem in this case, the handlebar can be rotated to a position where the handlebar is substantially parallel to the frame, that is, the handlebar is attached to a bicycle body, the front wheel does not need to rotate, and the front wheel can also be kept at a position where the front wheel is substantially parallel to the frame, thus reducing a size of the handlebar in a width direction of the bicycle body, reducing a size in the width direction of the bicycle body occupied by the inclined wheel, facilitating parking and taking of the bicycle in a limited space, reducing mutual interference and scratching between the bicycle and other adjacent vehicles, and reducing the risk of bicycle damage to the greatest extent.

In an embodiment, the limiting holes include a first limiting hole and a second limiting hole, the first limiting hole and the second limiting hole are spaced apart along a circumferential direction of the stem; the locking positions include a first locking position and a second locking position, when the limiting member is at the first locking position, the positioning hole is aligned with the first limiting hole, and the limiting member is inserted into the positioning hole and the first limiting hole, and when the limiting member is at the second locking position, the positioning hole is aligned with the second limiting hole, and the limiting member is inserted into the positioning hole and the second limiting hole. For example, when the bicycle with the handlebar assembly is ridden, at the unlocking position, the handlebar is rotatable relative to the stem, and in this case, the whole handlebar can be rotated into the state of being substantially perpendicular to the wheel of the front fork, i.e., the state that the handlebar is substantially perpendicular to the frame, the limiting structure is then moved to the first locking position to relatively fix the handlebar and the stem, and in this case, the handlebar can drive the stem to rotate together. It can be understood that this conforms to the bicycle using habits of the user during riding, the user faces the handlebar, and double hands can naturally rest on the handlebar in front of the body. For another example, if the bicycle with the handlebar assembly is parked in the designated parking region, the number of the bicycles in the designated region is large, and the distances between the bicycles are small, the bicycle with the handlebar assembly according to the present application has advantages, the limiting member can be moved to the unlocking position, the handlebar can be rotated relative to the stem in this case, the handlebar can be rotated to the position where the handlebar is substantially parallel to the frame, that is, the handlebar is attached to the bicycle body, the front wheel does not need to rotate, and the front wheel can also be kept at the position where the front wheel is substantially parallel to the frame, thus reducing the size of the handlebar in the width direction of the bicycle body, reducing the size in the width direction of the bicycle body occupied by the inclined wheel, facilitating the parking and taking of the bicycle in the limited space, reducing the mutual interference and scratching between the bicycle and other adjacent vehicles, and reducing the risk of bicycle damage to the greatest extent. In order to prevent the handlebar from swinging in a parking process, the limiting structure can be moved to the second locking position, and the limiting member is inserted into the positioning hole and the second limiting hole simultaneously, so that the handlebar is kept fixed while being adjacent to the bicycle body.

In an embodiment, an axial extension line of the first limiting hole and an axial extension line of the second limiting hole are arranged to form an angle.

In an embodiment, the axial extension line of the first limiting hole and the axial extension line of the second limiting hole are arranged to form at an angle of 90 degrees. It may be understood that in a more preferred embodiment, the handlebar located at the first locking position is substantially perpendicular to the front wheel during riding, and the handlebar located at the second locking position is preferably substantially parallel to the bicycle body and the front wheel during parking. In other words, the handlebar located at the first locking position is substantially perpendicular to the handlebar located at the second locking position, and in order to achieve this effect, the axial extension line of the first limiting hole and the axial extension line of the second limiting hole are arranged at the included angle of 90 degrees in this embodiment.

In an embodiment, a guide bump is further arranged on an outer side circumference of the stem, a guide sliding groove is provided in the side circumference of the support tube, the guide bump is slidably provided in the guide sliding groove, and the guide bump abuts against a groove wall of the guide sliding groove to limit movement of the support tube in an axial direction of the stem and limit a rotation angle of the support tube in the circumferential direction of the stem. The guide bump is inserted into the guide sliding groove, and the guide bump abuts against the groove wall of the guide sliding groove in the axial direction of the stem, so that movement of the handlebar and the stem in the axial direction can be limited, and the handlebar and the stem are prevented from being separated. In addition, since a length extending direction of the guide sliding groove is limited, a sliding stroke of the guide bump in the guide sliding groove is limited, and therefore, a rotating stroke of the handlebar relative to the stem is also limited.

In an embodiment, the guide sliding groove is arranged to extend along the circumferential direction of the stem, the guide sliding groove has a first end and a second end in the circumferential direction of the stem, the positioning hole is aligned with the first limiting hole when a groove wall of the first end of the guide sliding groove abuts against the guide bump, and the positioning hole is aligned with the second limiting hole when a groove wall of the second end of the guide sliding groove abuts against the guide bump. Such a structure arrangement has the advantages that, specifically, when the handlebar rotates to the state of being substantially perpendicular to the front wheel, the guide bump can be arranged to just abut against the groove wall of the first end of the guide sliding groove, the positioning hole is just aligned with the first limiting hole, and in this case, the limiting structure is inserted into the positioning hole and the first limiting hole, and the handlebar is fixed to the stem. That is, the limiting structure is quickly positioned to the first locking position. Similarly, when the handlebar rotates to a state of being substantially parallel to the front wheel, the guide bump can be arranged to just abut against the groove wall of the second end of the guide sliding groove, the positioning hole is just aligned with the second limiting hole, and in this case, the limiting structure is inserted into the positioning hole and the second limiting hole, and the handlebar is fixed to the stem. That is, the limiting structure is quickly positioned to the second locking position. In other words, the groove wall of the first end of the guide sliding groove and the groove wall of the second end of the guide sliding groove can abut against the guide bump, so as to achieve a positioning effect on relative rotation of the handlebar and the stem, so that the user can conveniently rotate the handlebar to the first locking position and the second locking position relative to the stem.

In an embodiment, the limiting structure further includes a fixing sleeve sleeved on an outer side circumference of the support tube and a handle rotatably connected to the fixing sleeve, and the limiting member is arranged on a side of the handle adjacent to the support tube.

In an embodiment, a side circumference of the fixing sleeve is further provided with an avoiding hole, the avoiding hole is aligned with the positioning hole, and at the locking position, the limiting member at least partially extends through the avoiding hole and the positioning hole to be inserted into the limiting hole.

In an embodiment, the limiting member is a pin, and the pin extends through the handle and is fixed to the handle.

In an embodiment, the limiting member is at least partially matched with the limiting hole, and the limiting hole is matched with the positioning hole. With such a structure arrangement, the limiting member can fit a hole wall of the positioning hole after being inserted into the positioning hole, so as to avoid that the limiting member is prone to shake due to a gap between the limiting member and the hole wall of the positioning hole, and the limiting member can also fit a hole wall of the limiting hole after being inserted into the limiting hole, so as to avoid that the limiting member is prone to shake due to a gap between the limiting member and the hole wall of the limiting hole.

In an embodiment, at least a part of the limiting member is cylindrical.

In an embodiment, two grips are provided, and the two grips are located on two opposite sides of the support tube.

In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present application more apparent, the embodiments of the present application are described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth, so as to provide a thorough understanding of the present application. However, the present application may be implemented in many ways different from those described herein, those skilled in the art may make similar improvements without departing from the essence of the present application, and therefore, the present application is not limited to the examples disclosed below.

Referring toto, in some embodiments, the present application provides a handlebar assembly, including a stem, a handlebar, and a limiting structure. A side circumference of the stemis provided with a limiting hole, the handlebarincludes a gripand a support tubefixed to the grip, and a side circumference of the support tubeis provided with a positioning hole.

One of the support tubeand the stemis rotatably sleeved with another. For example, in an embodiment, the support tubeis rotatably sleeved on an outer side circumference of the stem. For another example, in another embodiment, the stemis rotatably sleeved on an outer side circumference of the support tube. The limiting structureincludes a limiting membermovably connected to the handlebar, and the limiting membercan move between an unlocking position and a locking position relative to the handlebar. As shown inand, when the limiting memberis at the locking position, at least a part of the limiting memberis inserted into the positioning holeand the limiting holesimultaneously to lock the handlebarand the stem. As shown in, when the limiting memberis at the unlocking position, the limiting memberis disengaged from the limiting holeand the positioning hole, and the handlebaris rotatable relative to the stem.

The above handlebar assemblyat least achieves the following beneficial effects: the stemmay be fixed to a front fork of a bicycle for controlling a travel direction of a wheel on the front fork. When the bicycle with the handlebar assemblyis ridden, at the unlocking position, the handlebaris rotatable relative to the stem, as shown in, and in this case, the whole handlebarcan be rotated into a state of being substantially perpendicular to the wheel of the front fork, i.e., the handlebaris substantially perpendicular to a frame, the limiting structureis then moved to the locking position to relatively fix the handlebarand the stem, and in this case, the handlebarcan drive the stemto rotate together. It can be understood that this conforms to bicycle using habits of a user during riding, the user faces the handlebar, and two hands can naturally rest on the handlebarin front of the body. If the bicycle with the handlebar assemblyis parked in a designated parking region, a number of bicycles in the designated region is large, and distances between the bicycles are small, the bicycle with the handlebar assemblyaccording to the present application has advantages. For example, the limiting membercan be moved to the unlocking position, the handlebarcan be rotated relative to the stem, as shown in, and the handlebarcan be rotated to a position where the handlebaris substantially parallel to the frame, that is, the handlebaris attached to a bicycle body, the front wheel does not need to rotate, and the front wheel can also be kept at a position where the front wheel is substantially parallel to the frame, thus reducing a size of the handlebarin a width direction of the bicycle body, reducing a size in the width direction of the bicycle body occupied by the inclined wheel, facilitating parking and taking of the bicycle in a limited space, reducing mutual interference and scratching between the bicycle and other adjacent vehicles, and reducing the risk of bicycle damage to the greatest extent.

Specifically, as shown in, in some embodiments, the limiting holesinclude a first limiting holeand a second limiting hole. The first limiting holeand the second limiting holeare spaced apart along a circumferential direction of the stem. The locking positions include a first locking position and a second locking position. When the limiting memberis at the first locking position, the positioning holeis aligned with the first limiting hole, and the limiting memberis inserted into the positioning holeand the first limiting hole. When the limiting memberis at the second locking position, the positioning holeis aligned with the second limiting hole, and the limiting memberis inserted into the positioning holeand the second limiting hole. For example, when the bicycle with the handlebar assemblyis ridden, at the unlocking position, the handlebaris rotatable relative to the stem, as shown in, and in this case, the whole handlebarcan be rotated into the state of being substantially perpendicular to the wheel of the front fork, i.e., the state that the handlebaris substantially perpendicular to the frame, the limiting structureis then moved to the first locking position to relatively fix the handlebarand the stem, and in this case, the handlebarcan drive the stemto rotate together. It can be understood that this conforms to the bicycle using habits of the user during riding, the user faces the handlebar, and the two hands can naturally rest on the handlebarin front of the body. For another example, if the bicycle with the handlebar assemblyis parked in the designated parking region, the number of the bicycles in the designated region is large, and the distances between the bicycles are small, the bicycle with the handlebar assemblyaccording to the present application has advantages. For example, the limiting membercan be moved to the unlocking position, the handlebarcan be rotated relative to the stemin this case, as shown in, and the handlebarcan be rotated to the position where the handlebaris substantially parallel to the frame, that is, the handlebaris adjacent to the bicycle body, the front wheel does not need to rotate, and the front wheel can also be kept at the position where the front wheel is substantially parallel to the frame, thus reducing the size of the handlebarin the width direction of the bicycle body, reducing the size in the width direction of the bicycle body occupied by the inclined wheel, facilitating the parking and taking of the bicycle in the limited space, reducing the mutual interference and scratching between the bicycle and other adjacent vehicles, and reducing the risk of bicycle damage to the greatest extent. In order to prevent the handlebarfrom swinging in a parking process, the limiting structurecan be moved to the second locking position, and the limiting memberis inserted into the positioning holeand the second limiting holesimultaneously, so that the handlebaris kept fixed while being attached to the bicycle body.

More specifically, as shown in, in some embodiments, an axial extension line of the first limiting holeand an axial extension line of the second limiting holeare arranged to form an angle. For example, in the embodiment shown in, the axial extension line of the first limiting holeand the axial extension line of the second limiting holeform an included angle of 90 degrees. It may be understood that in a more preferred embodiment, the handlebarlocated at the first locking position is substantially perpendicular to the front wheel during riding, and the handlebarlocated at the second locking position is preferably substantially parallel to the bicycle body and the front wheel during parking. In other words, the handlebarlocated at the first locking position is substantially perpendicular to the handlebarlocated at the second locking position, and in order to achieve this effect, the axial extension line of the first limiting holeand the axial extension line of the second limiting holeare arranged to form the angle of 90 degrees in this embodiment.

Referring to,,, and, in some embodiments, a guide bumpis further provided on an outer side circumference of the stem, a guide sliding grooveis formed in the side circumference of the support tube, and the guide bumpis slidably provided in the guide sliding groove. The guide bumpabuts against a groove wall of the guide sliding groove, so as to limit movement of the support tubein an axial direction of the stemand limit a rotation angle of the support tubein the circumferential direction of the stem. The guide bumpis inserted into the guide sliding groove, and the guide bumpabuts against the groove wall of the guide sliding groovein the axial direction of the stem, so that movement of the handlebarand the stemin the axial direction can be limited, and the handlebarand the stemare prevented from being separated. In addition, since a length extending direction of the guide sliding grooveis limited, a sliding stroke of the guide bumpin the guide sliding grooveis limited, therefore, a rotating stroke of the handlebarrelative to the stemis also limited.

Further, as shown in, in some embodiments, the guide sliding grooveextends along the circumferential direction of the stem. The guide sliding groovehas a first endand a second endin the circumferential direction of the stem. The positioning holeis aligned with the first limiting holewhen a groove wall of the first endof the guide sliding grooveabuts against the guide bump, and the positioning holeis aligned with the second limiting holewhen a groove wall of the second endof the guide sliding grooveabuts against the guide bump. Such a structure arrangement has the advantages that, specifically, when the handlebarrotates to the state of being substantially perpendicular to the front wheel, the guide bumpcan be arranged to just abut against the groove wall of the first endof the guide sliding groove, the positioning holeis just aligned with the first limiting hole, and in this case, the limiting structureis inserted into the positioning holeand the first limiting hole, and the handlebaris fixed to the stem. That is, the limiting structure is quickly positioned to the first locking position. Similarly, when the handlebarrotates to a state of being substantially parallel to the front wheel, the guide bumpcan be arranged to just abut against the groove wall of the second endof the guide sliding groove, the positioning holeis just aligned with the second limiting hole, and in this case, the limiting structureis inserted into the positioning holeand the second limiting hole, and the handlebaris fixed to the stem. That is, the limiting structure is quickly positioned to the second locking position. In other words, the groove wall of the first endof the guide sliding grooveand the groove wall of the second endof the guide sliding groovecan abut against the guide bump, so as to achieve a positioning effect on relative rotation of the handlebarand the stem, so that the user can conveniently rotate the handlebarto the first locking position and the second locking position relative to the stem.

Specifically, as shown in, in some embodiments, a side circumference of the fixing sleeveis further provided with an avoiding hole, the avoiding holeis aligned with the positioning hole. When the limiting memberis at the locking position, the limiting memberat least partially extends through the avoiding holeand the positioning hole, so as to be inserted into the limiting hole.

Specifically, as shown in, in some embodiments, the limiting memberis a pin, which extends through the handleand is fixed to the handle.

Specifically, in some embodiments, the limiting memberis at least partially matched with the limiting hole, and the limiting holeis matched with the positioning hole. With such a structure arrangement, the limiting membercan fit a hole wall of the positioning holeafter being inserted into the positioning hole, so as to avoid that the limiting memberis prone to shake due to a gap between the limiting memberand the hole wall of the positioning hole, and the limiting membercan also fit a hole wall of the limiting holeafter being inserted into the limiting hole, so as to avoid that the limiting memberis prone to shake due to a gap between the limiting memberand the hole wall of the limiting hole.
